Boehringer Ingelheim

From average daily gains and conception rates to milk production and immunity, parasites can wreak havoc on them all.1,2Whether your cattle spend their days roaming the pasture or the dry lot, your bottom line can suffer if you’re not deworming.

To provide producers with more flexible administration options, Boehringer Ingelheim has introduced a 10-L bottle of Eprinex® (eprinomectin) pour-on dewormer that can be used inverted or upright, with vented caps. This new packaging size offers added convenience for producers who are deworming large cattle herds, but don’t require the amount of product that the 20-L bottle already offers.

“We are committed to providing practical parasite control solutions for cattle operations of all sizes,” said Doug Ensley, DVM, technical marketing manager, Boehringer Ingelheim. “By choosing EPRINEX for parasite control, you can be confident in your ability to treat cattle effectively and focus on what really matters: a healthy herd, and quality beef and dairy production.”

EPRINEX is the first dewormer to kill 39 species and stages of parasites, with up to 99.9% efficacy.3 This dewormer is convenient for processing cattle on arrival, and its nonflammable, weatherproof formula works even on long, wet hair coats.
